THE FArAL CasAM PUFF.
DIR. WOin Finds That 1t Contains Most Pois.

LIE. woIu rtnus INIT IL COutelne MOsS Fols-
onoas lngredieDtA.
DR.. Lawrence Wolff, demonstrstor OF chem.
istTy at the Jefferson Medical college, has
prepared q report OF his analysis Of Q cream
puff, which, it Is said, was one OF q number
that were supposed to have produced poison.
Gus sym ptoms in patients OF DIR. John s. Mil
Ter, of Phisdeiphia
DR.. Wolf states that he examined the
puff without finding any trace of arsenic or
aatimony, and failed to detect In 1t either
mercury, copper or lead. In extending his
Investigations towards the discovery OF or.
gsnic pOsons, he says he found ptOmsin,
representing, II not identical with, the &c
called tyrO tOxicOn, which Prof. Vaughan
had discovered last year in poisonous cheese
and spoiled milk. He proved its presence in
the cream puff, he states by means OF the
test recommended by Prof. Vaughan, and
showed its poisonous nature by giving It to
. kitten, which was Immediately seized with
symptoms similar to those experienced by
patients Of DR.. Miller, namely, gastro-intea-
tinal irritation, with great prCstrstion. This
result OF the analysis, 1t 10 said, would indi-
cate that the poison was generated while the
putt was in process OF spelling.
Ia concluding his report DR.. Wolf says
" Ii seems 70 me fair to state that the bak or
by whom the cream pulls were prepared
should be entirely exonerated from any
blame attached to him in the matter, as the
cause of the trouble must be looked for
rather in the unseasonabie use OF this K ind
of pastry, or the improper manner In which
1t had been kept during the warm and close
nights OF this heated term"

1sGs, y ~ b assumsd thas ths question
\ es1aaed. We DO not know what stomach
Ne Grand Army patfiots have for the
eudosssmsnt Of their views BY Mr.. Davis,
but ~ sincerely trust that It viii not dis
turb their digestion. They are entitled to
. great deal Of sympathy for the trouble
they have taken TO get this flag busi-
nes 70 turn out according TO its brilliant
promise and they ought now to have =
rest.
When General Fairchild asked the
Almighty to palsy the hand that wrote the
order for the delivery Of the flags, and ms
mayer was answered BY the revocation OF
the order, with the approval Of jeff Davis,
the Grand Army, that General tair-
| child leads, may have cause for the opln-
| ion that their commanders prayers are
quite too effective. They may conclude
| that the virtue in the voice was the
virtue of the Grand Army, for
whom It assumed to speak; and they may
| feel that their virtue is too great entirely,
to reap 50 rich reward. To he sure,
the hand Of President Cleveland was not
palsied, and there is a suspicion abroad
that the Grand Army has been ; but the
ardent Grand Army patriot may not SCI
this, blinded by the effulgence Of the fact
that when his commander spoke, conver
sion fell upon the president of the Union
and the ex.president Of the Confederacy
and upon all the people.

THE electric light men OF New York have
deter mined to manufacture their own car
bons, being forced, they say, to that conclu.
sion by the extortion OF the carbon manufsc.
turers. For long time past the market has
been supplied by two firms in Pittsburg,
three or four in Cleveland, an6 two in ST
Louis. These companies two months ago
formed . combination, and the combination
took charge OF all the factories. The price OF
carbons was suddenly and without warning
raised from SO to sl2 per 1000 to so and s25.
The electric light men have banded together
not only to manufacture the carbons, but to
control the supply ofrsw material This will
destroy the business Of the Western com.

The failure Of the Fidelity National
bank OF Cincinnati, Ohio, and the deep
fraud which is found underlying it has
called attention to the insecurity of the
public In the investment of funds in what
are supposed to he institutions of the
soundest character. The comptroller of
the currency, Mr.. Trenholm, says that
owing to the lack Of appropriations, he is
compelled to depend on local bank exami.
ners for additional examiners; and these
latter are frequently green enough to be
easily imposed upon by adept tinanciers
such as those who wrecked the Fidelity
bank. 1t appears that the examination
Of this bank in January disclosed every.
thing in proper condition whether any
thorough examination was since made does
not appear.
1t u believed that If there were more
oank examiners and they were entrusted
with larger powers, q bank could be pre-
vented from lending its credit to the
gambling operations such as those which
were fatal to the Cincinnati institution.
Though there were pretty well authenti.
caaed rum0rs OF the shaky condition of the
bank two weeks before the break, the bank
odhcials put on bEazen front and de-.
tegmined to lull the public into false
eonse OF security. And they succeeded for
. time. On June Is vel. known I.ancas.
~ bank received letter from the Fidelit,
1ank, in which the assertion was mad,
that 1t had the biggest capital, asset
I'D surplus OF any national bank in Ohio
and . request for exchange Of busines
was made. This was only . week befor
~ big exposure. How many gudgeon
Z wsre caught BY this last circular Is no
known. But when bank on the eve O
- failure may engage with impunity IL
this Wholesale scheme to throw dust In th,
- oe the people, there is something rad
!eaAly wrong In the present system Of bsnl
6eueetaon.
